My son loves this book and all of the Alphabet books by Audrey Wood. We started reading them together when he was 2 1/2 and the books quickly became his favorites. He has them all memorized and we incorporate "ABC adventures" into stories that we make up for him every night before he goes to sleep. I highly, highly recommend this book and the others by Audrey Wood.

It's a little weird when all the characters are letters of the alphabet and when the cat that they rescue from the tree is actually the letters C A T but my son is 3.5 and loves it...so he's learning about letters in the context of his favorite thing...firetrucks...so I'm not complaining.

Purchased this book based solely upon reviewers recommendations and I was very disappointed. I have always enjoyed Audrey and Don Wood's children's books but the collaboration between Audrey and her son Bruce fell short... very short. The images are computer generated and the story line is just bad. I accidentally ordered two copies and ended up returning the other copy because I refused to give one to my son and be forced to read it before bedtime. Stick with her other books that have been enjoyed over and over again by my son AND myself!

This book reminds me of the PBS show 'Word World'. My son loves this book! I love that the book has big letters and little letters. Great book for the early reader. The story is very cute. I will be buying more from this series.

My daughter's preschool teacher told me how much my daughter (4 years) loved this book when she read it to them, so of course I had to look for it at home. Great way to teach letters, and my daughter loves any kind of adventure story.

All of the Alphabet Books are wonderfully illustrated and the stories are fun to follow. We read the Alphabet books over and over again with our 4 year old grandson, and we find new educational moments every time. These are fantastic books.

My grandson loves it. His mother sent a picture of him hugging the book. He just turned 4 and knows all his letters and numbers and loves fire engines, so it was a perfect fit. I learned about the book while helping with the SMART reading program in an elementary school.

My young children enjoy this story over and over.It always brings a smile to their face when they hear Audrey Wood's name. She's one of our favorite authors and as a parent I feel like whenever I buy one of her books, it's a sure shot.Alphabet Rescue is a story that allows the underdog to come to the rescue. It's exciting and a book for any age.
